Is Harassment of Public Figures Acceptable: Your Sincere Opinion
#25
RE: Is Harassment of Public Figures Acceptable: Your Sincere Opinion
Quote:Personally, I do not know of any prominent conservatives agitating protesters or liberal public figures that have been intimidated publically, or notable conservative pundits defending such behavior. Maybe some of the more left-leaning AF members could provide some examples to further the conversation.



How about all the times James O'Keefe has done it . But even if we granted your claim it never happens (there are many many many more examples ) That does not invalidate it .

Quote:I thought that there where protests outside of Maxine Waters house? 
Even if there was not that's not an argument 


Quote:But no, I don’t agree with the types of harassment, intolerance, and violence as a mode of political voice that we seem to be heading to.
Too bad it's none of those things and is a totally valid tactic at holding government officials responsible.

Quote:As I understand him, Plato advocates a kind of benevolent tyranny by an elite class that is at odds with America's founding principle of self-governance, i.e. a republic of the people, as opposed to Philosopher Kings lording over their subjects. Is that truly the direction you believe America should go?
Some needs to read more  Plato
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
